Moody Trip (SH)
January 22th – 24th, 2026
Join Pastor Jonathan on a trip to Moody Bible Institute for a college visit and Theology Summit!
Any student that comes to youth group can expect to experience genuine worship, biblically sound teaching, and people passionate about Jesus.
At GSM we are HUGE on discipleship. For discipleship we have 4 books that students walk through with someone who is farther along in their walk with God. These students being discipled are also expected to disciple others. This is much more than reading a book! We seek to bring those we are discipling with us as we do ministry.
